He ruins everything. It's a pattern through his entire life.

Fairbanks Alaska showed up. I'll share more as I get them. One estimate is 3000 stood in resistance against fascism.

Odds are they won't, in my view.

Yikes. Weird response to a question after you mention an outside perspective.

Will local police protect the people from the escalatory violence of the federal agents?

I'm supposing that Noem lied because:
A) that's her habit,
B) that's the Trump culture, and
C) she's certain that the cult won't care.

You might get that promotion if you smiled more.

Our culture is patriarchal. There are patriarchal traditions and subtle behaviors or expectations that persist throughout government and private workplaces. It's in our homes because it is a part of the history of this country. We have been shrinking It's footprint, but the boot is still there.

If you think this exchange has implied that men are incapable of managing a home or a family, then I think that clarification is indeed called for.

I think that you are correct theoretically. Sometimes, that even plays out in the social experiment we call the USA. I think that more often, we see the traditional patriarchy play out with some hefty doses of outright misogyny thrown in for good measure.

Women have been resisting that oppressed state of existence for some time now. Too often, they call us witches or some other label that allows public correction in the form of physical abuse when we push against the expectations of the patriarchy.

I didn't expect that to make me tear up. I must have bought crybaby cannabis again.

One of the young women that I am privileged to have in my life is a lead research scientist and also keeps track of that stuff. Another runs a tech business from home with 2 kids (3 & 2). They have involved spouses, but... If you want something done, ask a busy woman to do it.

It got better. Later, Hegseth spent 3.5 minutes not answering if he would order troops to shoot protestors if the POTUS ordered it. If the POTUS said to just shoot them in the legs, would you order that? He wouldn't answer that in his confirmation, and he didn't again today.

Maybe? I wouldn't want to check.

That's the whole point. Adequate intimidation will distill the public resistance down to the bravest should who can afford to be detained. We are about to enter a new phase in this resistance.

Here in Alaska,we know lots about dressing for the occasion. We don't do it, but we know about it.

Indeed. They've been purging military leadership that had the courage to speak truth and stand firm on their oaths. Now, it's up to the individual members to refuse to carry out unconstitutional orders. They are outnumbered.
